The Sagadahoc Fair.

The Kennebec Journal promised its readers
an account of the Sagsdahoc Fair from the
pen OF doc" Richards, of our city, coupled
with the assurance that it should be printed as
furnished, verbatim ct literatim." We have
looked in vain for the report, but understand
that Chas. was present What's the trouble,

The Register is evidently very much in til e
dark about this affair. We will enlighten our
esteemed contemporary. The doc Rich

present member of the medical department
OF Bowdoin College. He was present at the
fair during the whole week and his reports
were the longest, most complete. aud best
written, of any which were sent out from the
fair. We regret that our contemporary
"looked in vain" for those reports, for they
occupied column or more in each of four
successive issues. If the Register would
really like to see them we refer it to
our issues of Oct. 18th. 18th, 18th, and 18th,

hearty speeches of welcome were made,
appropriately responded to by Messrs. Smith

any published in Kansas, makes an excellent
appearance and bears every mark of prosper
ity. Leavenworth is the largest city in Kansas
and the discovery of an abundance of coal

We have no doubt of the success Of Col.

They are both gentlemen of push and enter

we remember we'll when he first came out a
full fedged school-master, during his course
at Wsterville college, and when he wrote his
first articles for the press which were pub
lished in the Aroostook Pioneer then edited
by Hon. JOSH. Hall, Secretary of State. Col.
Smith is vigorous and brilliant writer and
withal a whole souled generous man. Mr..
Dingley is a graduate of Yale College. a son
of Congressman Dingley and is "a chip of
the old block" and we can predict with almost
absolute certainty his future prominence and
success.
